Frequently Asked Questions

Who can go on my Membership?

A Membership consists of individuals living in a single household. Every Membership must have at least one adult. Starting at the Family level, Memberships are made up of 2 adults and up to 6 youths (ages 3-18). All Members must be listed at time of purchase and Member names cannot be switched out until the next renewal.

How can I add grandparents and babysitters to my Membership?

To cover anyone outside of the Member household, we have introduced the Flex guest pass. A Flex guest is a permanent unnamed guest on the Membership that may accompany any listed Member throughout the year. Flex guest passes are available in addition to the one-time-use-only guest passes which come with every Membership.

Starting at the Dual level, Memberships can have up to two Flex adults and up to two Flex youths for $20 dollars each.

When will I receive my Membership Cards?

Our new system conversion comes with brand new and improved Membership cards. These cards will make checking in and booking tickets a much faster and more efficient process, so don’t forget them when you visit! You will receive a temporary Membership card upon your initial purchase that you can use until your permanent cards arrive.

We will be sending Membership Cards out 2-3 weeks after purchase for the two adults listed on the account. To conserve resources, only two cards will be printed per account. However, anyone on the account can use these cards to check in and book tickets.

If a card is lost or stolen we will reprint cards for a $2 reprint fee.

Do I need my cards to visit Pacific Science Center?

No, with a photo ID we can search your personal information in our system. However, with our brand new point of sale system having Membership card present makes the process of checking in and accessing Member discounts as simple as a swipe of your card. So, we ask everyone to please have Membership cards and photo ID ready when checking in.

How do I use my passes?

Passes for guests, documentary films, feature films, planetarium and lasers shows are all stored electronically. You can access these passes by logging in and purchasing tickets online, over the phone, or in person.

Are there any discounts on Memberships?

We offer a 10% discount for Military, educators and AAA members. The AAA discount is only applicable for first time Memberships.

We also offer a 20% discount for employees of our corporate partners. Ask your employer, call (206) 443-2924 or email membership@pacsci.org to find out if your employer is one of our partners.

Proof is required for a corporate partner discount at time of purchase. Proof can include anything from a staff id badge to an email from an employee email address. For a full list of proofs call (206) 443-2924 or email membership@pacsci.org.

We cannot apply a corporate partner discount on online purchases of Memberships at this time.

Discounts, promotions and special offers cannot be combined with any other discounts, promotions or offers.

How can I give a Membership to a friend or family member?

Pacific Science Center Memberships make the perfect gift for friends and family. Our Gift Memberships make the process of giving the gift of discovery quick and easy.

When purchasing a gift Membership voucher, you will create a billing account with your name, contact information and mailing address. If you purchase over the phone, our dedicated Membership team will then mail the gift voucher to the address provided. If purchased online, the gift voucher will be automatically emailed to the email address provided. Once your gift recipient receives the gift voucher, they can visit us anytime to redeem their gift Membership. Their membership will not start once the voucher has been redeemed. If purchased online you will be prompted to provide your own name, address, and email. Once the gift membership has been emailed to you, you may print it out or forward the email to someone else.

Gift Vouchers are valid for three years from date of purchase.
